Afghanistan

[BigRed]

I'd rather have Harry Truman.

Who wouldn't?

If we're going to play that game, I'll take Thomas Jefferson.

Well of course it`s all Trump`s fault...this buffoon is a freaking imbecile:

Biden sends 5,000 troops to Afghanistan, blames Trump for Taliban resurgence

President Joe Biden released a statement Saturday from the White House blaming his decision to surge U.S. troops to Afghanistan to combat the Taliban's surging land acquisition on the policies of former President Donald Trump.

I want Reagan. It would all be dealt with, GUARANTEED.

I don’t speak the language but it sure does sound like they are calling themselves the mujahadean and not the taliban

I'd rather have Obama

I’d rather have Trump than 0bama or 0biden.

Be specific Joe. Exactly which policy led up to this, hmmm?

 

[foszoe]

Oh HELL NO!

You'd rather have Biden than Obama?

My post was in response to Obama 2.0.

Biden is not more of the same to me, he's much worse.

Blame your predecessor... obama called, he said, "Uuuuuuuhhhhhh, that's my move, joe."

Kabul didn’t even last a day

US Embassy, Kabul


Operation Frequent Wind

Kabul didn’t even last a day

20 years, countless lives and a boatload of dollars up in smoke in a matter of a few days. Well done.

 

[rooster]

I guess the taliban don’t want any spooks sticking around after the “withdrawal”

 

[DadSmith]

It isn't over yet we have thousands of soldiers and civilians to get out of there yet. Will be praying that they can get out with minimal lose of life and limb.
God forbid a Benghazi repeat could happen on a much larger scale with the idiot in the White House in control.

I'm surprised he still remembers who 45 is.

How the Taliban Overran the Afghan Army, Built by the U.S. Over 20 Years

Afghanistan’s military was molded to match American operations and collapsed without U.S. air support and intelligence. That flaw was compounded by strategic blunders from the Ghani government.

Many of the Anti-Soviet Mujahideen warlords we funded during the Soviet invasion turned into the Taliban shortly after Soviet withdrawal. They still consider themselves "Mujahideen"

I really hope those troops leadership remembers Benghazi and pulled some extra ordnance for This excursion.

Idk why the collapse of the ANA is surprising. We taught them how to fight , which for us means go out get in a firefight and then call in the flyboys or artillery to finish them.

this has been the army’s SOP since Vietnam. You can only do this with overwhelming air power and an infinite budget for bombs and artillery

Not surprising to me. As soon as the pull out started many were probably making deals to stay alive. I imagine the majority joined the taliban.

Teleprompter.

We built these people a huge 335 electric power plant and it supplies Kubal. They are so behind the times they only use about 1% of the energy it can produce, we also spent 100 million upgrading another plant that was already there. This is all going to the taliban.

We've built them new hospitals and furnished them as well as rebuilt older ones. All going to the taliban.

State of the art water plants.
The list goes on and on.

Point is very few people over there appreciate what we gave them. They would rather live like they did in the 1700's.
